PRODUCT INFORMATION Apply Topsin M WSB with ground or aerial equipment, using sufficient volume of spray to provide thorough coverage. Add required amount of Topsin M WSB to partially filled tank agitated by mechanical or hydraulic means, and then add remaining required amount of water. Continuous agitation is required to keep the material in suspension.

Topsin M WSB may be tank-mixed with fungicides, insecticides and/or plant growth regulators that are approved for use on the intended crop. Tank mixes with highly alkaline pesticides, for example Bordeaux mixture or lime sulfur are not directed. No claim of compatibility with other pesticides is implied. It is directed to perform a Compatibility Jar Test to ensure tank mix product compatibility prior to use. See Compatibility Test section of this label for more information.

Begin applications as disease is first observed or expected. Tank mixing with a protectant fungicide is directed for resistance management. Use the higher rate under conditions of severe disease pressure. Also, see local State Extension Service directions for application schedules.

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 5 of 41 5

Aerial Applications. Use a minimum of 5 gallons of spray volume per acre for row crops, and a minimum of 10 gallons of spray volume per acre for tree crops.

Ground Applications. Use a minimum of 10 to 20 gallons of spray volume per acre for row crops.

High Volume Dilute Applications. Use the Topsin M WSB per acre use rate for concentrate spray application for tree crops (no more than 400 gallons on apples and pears; or 300 gallons on stone fruit). When making dilute ground application, use Topsin M WSB use rate per 100 gallons. Follow all crop specific application language on this label.

Higher spray volumes will result in better coverage and better disease control. Lack of control when using below minimum spray volumes is solely at the risk of the applicator/user. This includes the use of electrostatic sprayers.

Chemigation. Please see DIRECTIONS FOR USE THROUGH CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS for specific information. DO NOT apply through any irrigation system unless these instructions are followed.

Topsin M WSB may be used for control of labeled diseases during the non-bearing years of new planting of tree fruit and tree nuts, and on nursery stock.

Plantback restrictions: DO NOT plant any crop not labeled for Topsin use within 30 days of last application.

Topsin M WSB has protectant, systemic and curative actions, each specific to certain crops, fungi and climatic conditions.

Instructions for Introducing Water Soluble Packages Directly into Spray tanks: Topsin M WSB consists of a protective outer resealable package containing water-soluble bags. Water Soluble Packages (WSPs) are designed to dissolve in water. Agitation may be used, if necessary, to help dissolve the WSP. Failure to follow handling and mixing instructions can increase your exposure to the pesticide products in WSPs. WSPs, when used properly, qualify as a closed mixing/loading system under the Agricultural Worker Protection Standard [40 CFR 170.607(d)].

It is the pesticide user's responsibility to ensure that all products are registered for the intended use. Read and follow the applicable restrictions and limitations and directions for use on all product labels involved in tank mixing. Users must follow the most restrictive directions for use and precautionary statements of each product in the tank mixture.

Handling Instructions Follow these steps when handling pesticide products in WSPs.

Mix in spray tank only.

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 6 of 41 6 2. Handle WSP in a manner that protects package from breakage and/or unintended release of contents. If package is broken, put on PPE required for clean-up and then continue with mixing instructions. 3. Keep the WSP in outer packaging until just before use. 4. Keep the WSP dry prior to adding to the spray tank. 5. Handle with dry gloves and according to the label instructions for PPE. 6. Keep WSP intact. DO NOT cut or puncture WSP. 7. Reseal the WSP outer packaging to protect any unused WSP(s).

Mixing Instructions

Follow the steps below when mixing this product, including if tank mixed with other pesticide products. If being tank mixed, the mixing directions 1 through 9 below take precedence over the mixing directions of the other tank mix products. WSPs may, in some cases, be mixed with other pesticide products so long as the directions for use of all pesticide product components do not conflict. DO NOT tank mix this product with products that prohibit tank mixing or have conflicting mixing directions.

If a basket or strainer is present in the tank hatch, remove prior to adding the WSP to the tank.
Fill tank with water to approximately one-third to one-half of the desired final volume of spray.
Stop adding water and stop any agitation.
Place intact/unopened WSP into the tank.
DO NOT spray water from a hose or fill pipe to break or dissolve the WSP.
Start mechanical and recirculation agitation from the bottom of tank without using any overhead recirculation, if possible. If overhead recirculation cannot be turned off, close the hatch before starting agitation.
Dissolving the WSP may take up to 5 minutes or longer, depending on water temperature, water hardness and intensity of agitation.
Stop agitation before tank lid is opened.
Open the lid to the tank, exercising caution to avoid contact with dusts or spray mix, to verify that the WSP has fully dissolved and the contents have been thoroughly mixed into the solution.
DO NOT add other allowed products or complete filling the tank until the bags have fully dissolved and pesticide is thoroughly mixed.
Once the WSP has fully dissolved and any other products have been added to the tank, resume filling the tank with water to the desired level, close the tank lid, and resume agitation.
Use the spray solution when mixing is complete.
Maintain agitation of the diluted pesticide mix during transport and application.
It is unlawful to use any registered pesticide, including WSPs, in a manner inconsistent with its label.

DO NOT mix more spray volume than will be applied that day.

Windbreak-Shelterbelt Criteria

A 50% reduction in the wind-directional buffer distance required above can be made if a windbreak or shelterbelt (e.g., trees or riparian hedgerows) between the application site and aquatic habitat/conservation area is present and meets the following criteria:

• The windbreak or shelterbelt must be downwind between the pesticide application and the

aquatic habitat/conservation area. • The windbreak or shelterbelt must have a minimum of one row of trees and/or shrubs that have foliage that is sufficiently dense such that the aquatic habitat/conservation area is not visible on the upwind side at the time of application. • The row(s) of trees and/or shrubs in the windbreak/shelterbelt must run the full length of the treated crop and must have foliage that is sufficiently dense such that the aquatic habitat/conservation area is not visible on the upwind side. • The height of the trees in the windbreak or shelterbelt must be at the same height or higher than the release height of the application. • The windbreak or shelterbelt must be planted according to local/regional/federal conservation program standards; however, no state or federally listed noxious or invasive trees or shrubs should be planted. • The windbreak or shelterbelt must be maintained such that its functionality is not compromised.

A semi-permeable manmade structure, curtain, or netting that is raised prior to application can be used instead of a windbreak or shelterbelt. This structure must be downwind between the pesticide application and the non-managed area, cover the entire distance of field adjacent to non-managed area, and at the same height or higher as the release height of the application.

SPRAY DRIFT ADVISORIES

THE APPLICATOR IS RESPONSIBLE FOR AVOIDING OFF-SITE SPRAY DRIFT. Be aware of nearby non-target sites and environmental conditions. IMPORTANCE OF DROPLET SIZE

An effective way to reduce spray drift is to apply large droplets. Use the largest droplets that provide target pest control. While applying larger droplets will reduce spray drift, the potential for drift will be greater if applications are made improperly or under unfavorable environmental conditions. Controlling Droplet Size - Ground Boom x Volume - Increasing the spray volume so that larger droplets are produced will reduce spray drift. Use the highest practical spray volume for the application. If a greater spray volume is needed, consider using a nozzle with a higher flow rate. x Pressure - Use the lowest spray pressure recommended for the nozzle to produce the target spray volume and droplet size. x Spray Nozzle - Use a spray nozzle that is designed for the intended application. Consider using nozzles designed to reduce drift. Controlling Droplet Size - Aircraft

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 12 of 41 12 Adjust Nozzles - Follow nozzle manufacturers’ recommendations for setting up nozzles. Generally, to reduce fine droplets, nozzles should be oriented parallel with the airflow in flight.

BOOM HEIGHT - Ground Boom For ground equipment, the boom should remain level with the crop and have minimal bounce.

RELEASE HEIGHT - Aircraft Higher release heights increase the potential for spray drift.

HOODED (OR SHIELDED) SPRAYERS

Shielding the boom or individual nozzles can reduce spray drift. Consider using hooded sprayers. Verify that the shields are not interfering with the uniform deposition of the spray on the target area.

TEMPERATURE AND HUMIDITY

When making applications in hot and dry conditions, use larger droplets to reduce effects of evaporation.

TEMPERATURE INVERSIONS

Drift potential is high during a temperature inversion. Temperature inversions are characterized by increasing temperature with altitude and are common on nights with limited cloud cover and light to no wind. The presence of an inversion can be indicated by ground fog or by the movement of smoke from a ground source or an aircraft smoke generator. Smoke that layers and moves laterally in a concentrated cloud (under low wind conditions) indicates an inversion, while smoke that moves upward and rapidly dissipates indicates good vertical air mixing. Avoid applications during temperature inversions.

WIND

Drift potential generally increases with wind speed. Applicators need to be familiar with local wind patterns and terrain that could affect spray drift.

MEASURING WIND SPEED AND WIND DIRECTION

Best Management Practices for measuring wind speed and direction of wind: • Applicators should check and acquire the predicted wind speed and direction for the application site within 12 hours prior to conducting applications to determine the time periods wind speed is likely to fall outside the applicable thresholds. • Applicators should reassess wind speed and direction at the application site every 15 minutes while applications are in progress. • Measuring wind speed and direction can be done by: o Relying on the application equipment that measures wind speed (e.g., aerial equipment). o Using a tower anemometer with telemetry or handheld anemometer. Users should read user manual on how to calibrate, operate and interpret the output from an anemometer. Ground applicators should stop every 15 minutes to take a reading with a

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 13 of 41 13 tower anemometer with telemetry or handheld anemometer. Some anemometers may have software that would allow users to view wind measurements in real time while making an application, and, in those cases, applicators would not have to stop to take measurements. o Using a windsock. Wind can be estimated with a windsock using the stripes on a windsock. The applicator should consult the user manual for the windsock on wind speed estimation and direction of wind. Applicators should look at the sock at least every 15 minutes to estimate wind speed and direction. The windsock should be pointed in the opposite direction of the windbreak and CONSERVATION AREA/AQUATIC HABITAT. o Using an aircraft smoke system. Laying down several puffs of smoke along different lines using an aircraft smoke system can provide an accurate view of the wind speed and direction for the application. o Checking behind the spray rig at least every 15 minutes to see if the spray has changed direction from when the application started.

Handheld Technology Applications: • Take precautions to minimize spray drift.

RESISTANCE MANAGEMENT: For resistance management, Topsin M WSB contains a Group 1 fungicide. Any fungal population may contain individuals naturally resistant to Topsin M WSB and other Group 1 fungicides. A gradual or total loss of pest control may occur over time if these fungicides are used repeatedly in the same fields. Appropriate resistance-management strategies should be followed.

To delay fungicide resistance, take one or more of the following steps:

• Rotate the use of Topsin M WSB Fungicide or other Group 1 fungicides within a growing season sequence with different groups that control the same pathogens.

• Use tank mixtures with fungicides from a different group that are equally effective on the target pest when such use is permitted. Use at least the minimum application rate as labeled by the manufacturer.

• Adopt an integrated disease management program for fungicide use that includes scouting, uses historical information related to pesticide use, and crop rotation, and which considers host plant resistance, impact of environmental conditions on disease development, disease thresholds, as well as cultural, biological and other chemical control practices.

• Where possible, make use of predictive disease models to effectively time fungicide applications. Note that using predictive models alone is not sufficient to manage resistance.

• Monitor treated fungal populations for resistance development.

• Contact your local extension specialist or certified crop advisor for any additional pesticide resistance-management and/or IPM recommendations for specific crops and pathogens.

• For further information or to report suspected resistance contact Nippon Soda Co., Ltd. at 212- 490-0350. You can also contact your pesticide distributor or university extension specialist to report resistance.

Advisory Best Management Practices for Pollinator Protection The following best management practices (BMPs) can help reduce risk to pollinators: • Develop and maintain clear communication with local beekeepers to help protect bees. To the extent possible, advise beekeepers within a 1-mile radius 48-hrs in advance of the application, and confirm hive locations before spraying. • Avoid applications when bees are actively foraging. • Avoid applying pesticides to plants in bloom, including flowering weeds. • Apply pesticides in the evening or at night when fewer bees are foraging. • Use Pollinator Protection Plans when they are available. These plans may be available from state lead agencies and promote communication between growers, landowners, farmers, beekeepers, pesticide users, and other pest management professionals to reduce exposure of bees and other pollinators to pesticides. • Use integrated pest management to prevent or mitigate potential negative effects to pollinators and consider multiple pest management options before resorting to a pesticide application. • Mowing understory weeds or cover crops in orchards and vineyards before blooming can prevent flowering of weeds and reduce exposure to bees where and when pesticides are applied.

The following BMPs can help promote the health and habitat of ground-nesting bees: • For uncultivated land, leaving large undisturbed patches of land un-mowed and untilled can provide nesting and forage sites. • For uncultivated land, mowing at the highest cutting height possible (minimum of 8-10 inches if possible) can increase and diversify food sources.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE In the Aid in Control of Certain Canker Diseases Following Pruning of Almonds, Apricots, Cherries, Grapes, Nectarines, Peaches, Plums and Prunes.

To protect pruning cuts from canker diseases caused by fungal pathogens including Botryosphaeria spp. Eutypa lata, Leucostoma persoonii (Cytospora), Calosphaeria pulchella, Lasiodiplodia theobromae, and Diaporthe neotheicola (Phomopsis) apply Topsin M WSB fungicide in spray or paint-on to pruning wounds.

Spray: Apply Topsin M WSB at 1.5 lbs per acre (1.05 lb a.i.) in a minimum of 30 gallons alone, or a minimum of 50 gallons when tank mixed per acre, using power operated ground application equipment or a backpack sprayer. If backpack sprayer is used, chemical-resistant coveralls or a chemical-resistant coat must be worn.

Paint-on: Apply Topsin M WSB at 3.2 oz (2.24 oz a.i.) per 1 gallon water (1lb (0.7 lb a.i.) per 5 gallons of water) as a paint to cut or pruned surfaces immediately after cutting and before rain, dew, fog and fungal spores come into contact with fresh wood.

Results are improved by thorough coverage of pruning wounds and by pruning at a time when little or no rain is expected soon after treatment.

For improved management of canker diseases by fungal pathogens and for fungicide resistance management, it is directed to apply Topsin M WSB in a tank-mix with Rally® 40WSP (EPA Reg. No. 62719-410, myclobutanil) at 5 oz per acre for grapes and at 6 oz/acre for almonds, apricots, cherries, nectarines, peaches, plums and prunes and/or in the tank mix with other fungicides registered for canker disease management. Refer to the Rally 40 WSP (EPA Reg. No. 62719-410, myclobutanil) Special 2(ee) Recommendation for further information on this use.

Protect pruning cuts as soon as possible especially if irrigation, rainfall or fog is expected. Application within 24 hours is highly advised. Applications after 24 hours are permitted, but disease control may be reduced. Assure thorough coverage of all cut wood surfaces. For these pathogens, multiple applications may be needed. Make additional applications at approximately two-week intervals, especially if irrigation, rainfall or high humidity conditions exist.

The addition of a labeled rate of a registered organo-silicone spray adjuvant may increase penetration of cut wood surfaces. It is the responsibility of the user to assure that the organo- silicone spray adjuvant is safe to the crop under the existing conditions of use and label on the adjuvant container. Addition of a registered spray dye to the tank mix, and visual inspection of

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 36 of 41 36 the pruning cuts after application, will help assure thorough coverage of susceptible tissue.

DIRECTIONS FOR USE THROUGH CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS USE IN CALIFORNIA BY CHEMIGATION ONLY FOR BEANS, CUCURBITS (CANTALOUPE, CASABA, CUCUMBERS, MELONS, PUMPKINS, SQUASH, WATERMELONS), PEANUTS, POTATOES, SOYBEANS, STRAWBERRlES, AND SUGAR BEETS.

PRODUCT INSTRUCTIONS Apply this product only through sprinkler irrigation systems including center pivot, lateral move, end tow, side (wheel) roll, traveler, solid set or hand move; or drip (mini-micro sprinklers, strip tubing, trickle) irrigation systems. DO NOT apply this product through any other type of irrigation system.

Crop injury, lack of effectiveness, or illegal pesticide residues in the crop can result from nonuniform distribution of treated water.

If you have any questions about calibration, you should contact State Extension Service specialists, equipment manufacturers or other experts.

A person knowledgeable of the chemigation system and responsible for its operation, or under the supervision of the responsible person, shall shut the system down and make necessary adjustments should the need arise.

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 38 of 41 38 DO NOT connect chemigation system to any public water system. Public water system means a system for the provision of piped water for human consumption if such a system has at least 15 service connections or regularly serves an average of at least 25 individuals daily at least 60 days out of the year.

SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS Systems utilizing a pressurized water and pesticide injection system must meet the following requirements:

The system must contain a functional check valve, vacuum relief valve, and low pressure drain appropriately located on the irrigation pipeline to prevent water source contamination from backflow.

The pesticide injection pipeline must contain a functional, automatic, quick-closing check valve to prevent the flow of fluid back toward the injection pump. The pesticide injection pipeline must also contain a functional, normally closed, solenoid-operated valve located on the intake side of the injection pump and connected to the system interlock to prevent fluid from being withdrawn from the supply tank when the irrigation system is either automatically or manually shut down.

The system must contain functional interlocking controls to automatically shut off the pesticide injection pump when the water pump motor stops.

The irrigation line or water pump must include a functional pressure switch that will stop the water pump motor when the water pressure decreases to the point where pesticide distribution is adversely affected.

Systems must use a metering pump, for example a positive displacement injection pump (e.g., diaphragm pump) effectively designed and constructed of materials that are compatible with pesticides and capable of being fitted with a system interlock.

APPLICATION INSTRUCTIONS FOR CHEMIGATION SYSTEMS Observe the requirements in the System Requirements section above.

Apply Topsin M WSB only through systems containing anti-syphon and check valves designed to prevent water source contamination or overflow of the mix tank and containing interlocking controls between the metering device and the water pump to insure simultaneous shut-off.

Maintain a gentle continuous agitation in mix tank during mixing and application to assure a uniform suspension.

Greater accuracy in calibration and distribution will be achieved by injecting a larger volume of a more dilute suspension per unit time.

Application of more than specified quantities of irrigation water per acre may result in decreased product performance.

DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift, when system connections or fittings leak, when nozzles do not provide uniform distribution or when lines containing the product cannot be flushed and must be dismantled and drained. In a center pivot system, block the nozzle set

Clean Draft Label 2-14-25 EPA edits 5.18.26 6.10.26 6.17.26 Label Updates and Mitigation Additions Page 39 of 41 39 nearest the well/pivot/injection unit to prevent spray being applied to this area.

Where sprinkler distribution patterns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable disease control may result.

Allow sufficient time for pesticide to be flushed through all lines and all nozzles before turning off irrigation water.

Topsin M WSB may be applied in conjunction with chemically neutral liquid fertilizers. Application in conjunction with highly alkaline fertilizers, for example aqueous ammonia, may cause a degradation of the pesticide, resulting in reduced performance and should be avoided.

SPRAY PREPARATION: Remove scale, pesticide residues, and other foreign matter from the chemical tank and entire injector system. Flush with clean water. Prepare a suspension of Topsin M WSB in a mix tank. Fill the tank with ½ or ¾ of the desired amount of water. Start mechanical or hydraulic agitation. Slowly add the required amount of Topsin M WSB and then the remaining volume of water.

Sprinkler Irrigation Observe all System Requirements and Application Instructions above.

Set sprinkler system to deliver a maximum of 0.4 inch of water per acre. Volumes of water higher than this may reduce efficacy. Start sprinkler and then uniformly inject the suspension of Topsin M WSB into the irrigation water line so as to deliver the desired rate per acre. The suspension of Topsin M WSB should be injected with a positive displacement pump into the main line ahead of a right angle turn to insure adequate mixing. When treatment with Topsin M WSB has been completed, DO NOT irrigate the treated area for 24 to 48 hours to prevent washing the chemical off the crop.

DO NOT apply when wind speed favors drift beyond the area intended for treatment. Where sprinkler distributed patterns do not overlap sufficiently, unacceptable disease control may result.

Check local restrictions and requirements regarding sprinkler irrigation applications, as they may vary from state to state.

Drip (Mini-Micro Sprinklers, Strip Tubing, Trickle) Irrigation Observe all System Requirements and Application Instructions above. A pesticide supply tank is advised.

STORAGE AND DISPOSAL

DO NOT contaminate water, food, or feed by storage or disposal.

STORAGE: Store in the original container in a dry area. DO NOT store in a manner where cross-contamination with other pesticides, fertilizers, food or feed could occur. If spilled during storage or handling, sweep up spillage and dispose of in accordance with the Pesticide Disposal Instructions listed below.
